“The Buddha said: If a person commits many transgressions, but does not repent and immediately stop the will to commit them, then the consequences of the transgressions will return to him, like the sea broadening and deepening when water returns to it. If one with evil knows it is wrong, rectifies one's faults and thereby attains goodness, then day by day the offences diminish, and eventually one attains the Way.” The Sutra in Forty-two Chapters
